When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 596?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=17 and Y=596.
To find the number halfway between 17 and 596, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 17 and 596 into our formula, we get:
(17 + 596)/2 = 306.5
Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 596 is 306.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 306.5 and subtract 306.5 from 596 and compare the two numbers:
306.5 - 17 = 289.5
596 - 306.5 = 289.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 289.5 higher than 17 and 289.5 lower than 596. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 306.5 above is correct.
